Mother's Day Part 2 - Ham//Cheddar//Mushroom Quiche


Ham, Cheddar, Mushroom Quiche

4 Eggs
1 1/2 Cup Milk
1 Cup Diced Ham
1 Cup Shredded Sharp Cheddar
1 Cup Sliced Mushrooms
1 Box Jiffy Pie Crust

Quiche is SO easy to make, and quite delicious too.  And inexpensive! Triple threat, for sure!

Make your boxed pie crust and try your best (I struggled) to make it look pretty in your pie dish. Pre-bake according to directions.

Spread your Ham, Cheddar, and Mushrooms on the bottom, evenly.

Mix your milk and eggs.  Then, pour into pie dish.



Bake at 350 degrees for 40-50 minutes (or until set).

Enjoy!

Mother's Day Part 1 - Cinnamon Raisin Scones


Cinnamon Raisin Scones (heavy on raisins, light on cinnamon)

2 Cups Flour
1/3 Cup Dark Brown Sugar
1 Tablespoon Baking Powder
1/2 Teaspoon Kosher Salt
Cinnamon to taste
1 Stick cold butter, cubed
1/2 Cup Golden Raisins
1/2 Cup cold milk

Combine Dry ingredients.

Add butter with a pastry cutter (or in my case because I don't have one, a stiff whisk). You know you're done mixing in the butter when the dough is very crumb-y and the butter pieces are about the size of peas.

Add your raisins.

Add your milk and mix. Do not knead.

Place dough (in the shape of a disk) on a lightly floured cutting board.

Cut into quarters, and then cut each quarter in half again until you have 8 scones.

Bake at 450 Degrees and bake about 17 minutes.
